Turner Construction Company has secured a contract to build a $186-million patient care tower on Westchester Medical Center’s Valhalla, New York campus.
Construction is set to begin at the end of 2023 and will result in the addition of 128 hospital beds to serve patients needing trauma care, neurosciences, cardiology and general surgery. The additional beds will increase patient care capacity and enhance training for medical residents and students. The project will also boost the local economy, providing 770 construction jobs and 127 full-time jobs in the completed facility.
The five-story tower will enable the hospital to enhance care and comfort as all inpatient rooms will be private, and ICU rooms will have windows to let in natural light.
The 162,000-square-foot facility is planned to open in January 2026.
